• Research, prototype, and generally assess the feasibility of new approaches
• Imagine and then implement new features that unlock magic for our users
• Characterize and quantify the performance of core components of the software and hardware stack

What makes you a good fit:

• Demonstrated enthusiasm for one or more of the following: motion planning, dynamics and controls, embedded software/firmware, distributed systems, tools/infrastructure, mobile
• Solid software engineering foundation and a commitment to writing clean, well-architected code
• High proficiency in C++ and/or Python
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative, small team environment

Compensation Range: The hourly rate for this position is $58 for PhD students*. Compensation will vary based on factors, including skill level, proficiencies, transferable knowledge, and experience.
